I have put Sweden on the world map and i have put France too - Zlatan Ibrahimovic

Swedish international Zlatan Ibrahimovic is never one to hide his ego. The 34 year old claims to have put his country Sweden and France on the world football map.
Sweden play Denmark in the first leg of their Euro 2016 play-off in Stockholm on Saturday and Ibrahimovic hinted that should they fail to make the finals in France – where he plays for Ligue1 club PSG – that he may
call it a day for his country.
“I would love to play at the European Championship in France,” the striker said. “I have played there for four years. I have put Sweden on the world map and now I have put France on the world map too.
“If it’s over [for me] after the play-offs? We’ll see. If you’re asking me now? No. If you ask me after the play-offs? I don’t know.”
Zlatan shrugged off the fact he has never scored against the Danes. “It doesn’t mean anything,” he said. “There will be goals when there is goals. If we create chances they’ll turn up.” The second leg is in Copenhagen on Tuesday. The winner of the encounter over two legs will move to the next round.
